The routes

Born Ready climbs to the left of Fomo on Col di Specie - Geierwand. The 7-pitch outing provides difficulties up to grade IX and was first ascended ground-up and without bolts. The route offers overhanging, technical climbing on small edges,...

Via Helga is an interesting multipitch climb bolted with bolts and threads on the north face of Col Bocià. The ‘sprint’ start immediately sets the tone for the rest of the route: well-protected but not overly bolted. A satisfying, athletic...

El Corazon is a combination of Salathé, Albatross, Son of Heart and Heart Route plus some new established variations to link the freeable sections of the existing routes. Besides placing some new bolts on belay stations, no single bolt was...

Ahmed on the east face of Tuyat in the Taghia Gorge was established by Joseph Harris and Iker Pou, and dedicated to the legendary hospitality of the hut warden Ahmed.

A beautiful route that climbs the east face of the Torre Grande di Falzarego in 11 pitches, opened solo and ground-up on compact rock protected by bolts and a few pegs. All belays are equipped with bolts and rings. Once...

Laktosefrei on the north face of Weißzint / Punta Bianca line runs to the right of the historic route (Sepp Brunhuber, Fritz Kaspareck 1935), through a very compact section of the wall rich in slabs. A thin ice line provided...

Bio Rock on Piccolo Lagazuoi is very likely a small gem, with superb rock and its south-facing aspect. Established ground up over three cold days, the route is protected with bolts and numerous thread.

Abbronzatissima on Monte Fop in Val di Franzedaz is a technical and elegant route where balance, precision, and a cool head matter more than strength. It’s a climb that feels more like the Rätikon than the classic Dolomites.

With phenomenal climbing from the bottom to the top, Paradigm Shift climbs its way up the east face of the Central Tower of Paine in the Torres del Paine massif in Patagonia. The 1200m route was established over 41 days...

Mutante on the south face of the Petites Jorasses is a really complete, varied route: rock pitches, dry tooling, ice. Nothing too extreme, just beautiful and varied, tucked away in one of the wildest corners of Mont Blanc.

Crème Brutalée on the northwest face of Astraka is a route with a strong alpine character. Much of the difficulty lies not only in the technical climbing but also in the mental aspect, due to the limited protection in some sections...

Mixed climb on the south face of Großglockner. The crux on pitch 3 is a beautiful overhanging corner with a good crack but poor footholds. The route leads to the summit of Kleinglockner, after which the summit of Großglockner is...

Subconscia is a spectacular mixed climb in the Marmarole range in the Belluno Dolomites. It is a a stunning, isolated line in the heart of the face, opened in traditional style using pegs, ice screws and a trad rack.

Tarock is located to the left of Perdidos en el Mundo, opened in 2013 by Lorenzo Lanfranchi, Mirko Masè, Simone Pedeferri, Mattia Tisi and Andrea Zaffaroni, and to the right of the wall's first route, 100 años de soledad, put...

A highly logical line that climbs the central of the three large parallel corner on the buttress to the right of the main north face. Compared to the "twin" routes flanking it, this line somehow offers better ice tool placements...

The new 120-meter mixed climb is located above the well-known icefall Lukežev Led and features three pitches: the first WI5, the second M7/WI5+, and the third WI3. The route has been equipped with bolted belays, and the mixed section is...
